Evan Engram or Trey McBride: Who should I start in Week 7 Fantasy Football?

Evan Engram is back in the fold and looked 100% in London in Week 7. However, Trey McBride is an interesting option as well. Those fortunate enough to have both tight ends have a first-world issue this week. Nevertheless, it is an issue that should be solved. As such, here is a look at both players and a recommendation for Week 7.

Is Evan Engram a good pick in Week 7?

The Jaguars tight end is a solid option in Week 7. Had this been Week 3 or 4, it would arguably not be a good one. However, in mid-October, it is a great one. In his lone game this season, Engram earned about 13 points in half-PPR leagues.

Of course, the question is whether it can continue but after watching Engram earn nearly 1000 yards last season with Trevor Lawrence, expect plenty of looks for him this week. Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer projects him to earn 12.1 points against the New England Patriots in London.

Is Trey McBride a good pick in Week 7?

With Marvin Harrison Jr. still battling injury, Trey McBride might be the Cardinals' best receiving option this week. The tight end is projected to earn 12.6 points, per Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer. This means he will be a solid starting option this week as the main tight end or even perhaps a low-end flex.

If you are having trouble working with the bye situation this week, McBride could slot in to hold your team over for Week 7.

Whom should I start between Evan Engram and Trey McBride in Week 7?

Some teams can benefit by starting both Evan Engram and Trey McBride this week. Those who must choose between the two should support Trey McBride. In terms of production, the two are nearly equal. However, according to Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer, McBride is due 0.5 more points this week.

In the end, either option will do but for those interested in wringing every point (or in this case, half-point) out of their players, the Optimizer has spoken. Of course, this is merely a projection for Week 7 and once Marvin Harrison Jr. returns, it likely will eat into McBride's targets. Keep this in mind as the season continues.
